Tao Qigong and Summer
The feeling associated with summer and the element of fire is joy, gratitude, and love.
Regarding Chinese Medicine and Tao Qigong: The heart is associated with:
- The colour is red
- The temperature is hot
- The taste is bitter
- The corresponding organ is the small intestine
- The sense associated with the heart is the tongue (speech)
- The vessels associated with the heart are the tissues.
The motion of this fire element is upward, like a flame.
When our fire energy is balanced, joy feels like a warm, expansive feeling in our chest. We experience contentment; life is good, regardless of the circumstances. We live in harmony with ourselves, sleep peacefully, our relationships are stable, and there is much love and laughter.
